This text examines the male Romantics' versions of poetic authority
in theory and practice in the context of their involvement in the
political debates of Regency Britain and argues that their response
to Burke's gendered discourse about power effected radical changes
in the definitions of masculinity and femininity. It portrays their
influence on each other as a series of unstable struggles and
alliances in which the formulation of an authoritative masculinity
was a political as well as an aesthetic issue. The author
investigates the writers' portrayals of women and their
collaborations with women writers and throws new light on their
nature poetry by relating it to their reactions to the sexual and
political scandals of the Regency.
